I for one don't want to see the routers CPUs' screaming red when a random brazilian ISP experiences a fiber cut and I see 5,000 v6 prefixes churning in most routers in the world because of that. You won't see it screaming red.
Because the job is done in about <50ms and this is standard business *today*. A 5000 prefix update is what happens quite often e.g. if an exchange router is restarted. What happens: *Nothing*. *No impact at all*. Question: Do you intend to implement IPv6 and BGP on a 8080 CPU ?
PI to end-users => lots of processing on routers when those sites, their ISPs, transits, ..., experience failures. Pi works today.
